“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same. ”~Ronald Reagan

Making Memories

Really.Stop and think hard.Close your eyes and remember.Think of the all the little details.It will make you smile.Even today.

Ever think of how your own children might answer this question someday?

Every day, we have the opportunity to create memories with the people we love.It doesn’t have to involve expensive vacations or extravagant gifts…just some thoughtand some time and lots of love.Get creative !

I have two (update: THREE😱) kids in their 20’s.Every year they ask if we can still carve pumpkins.It’s a tradition.They bring their friends…we laugh…throw pumpkin guts…make a huge, sticky mess…toast pumpkin seeds…eat snacks…and watch “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!”.

I don’t know about how life changing or meaningful any of that may be,but every year, I take a deep breath,and let the crazy mess begin,and know we’re making another memory.
